The Dive Shop features certification by Scuba Diving International (SDI)/Technical Diving International (TDI), the largest technical certification agency in the world. SDI is a primary member of the Recreational Scuba Training Council (RSTC); SDI certification cards are recognized throughout the world.
- Your tuition includes instructional costs and books – the pool expenses, equipment rental for 4 class/pool sessions and for 4 Open Water dives incur an additional costs of $95 for Scuba I (Basic Open Water certification) and $150 for Scuba II (Advanced Open Water certification).
- Additional costs will be for transportation/food/lodging for the Open Water dives (the Crater is private property and charge a daily admission fee – if you are performing your certification dives at the Crater, you will be required to pay that fee as well; ask at The Dive Shop for details).
Open Water Dives are usually done at Blue Lake (near Wendover) the last weekend of each month, and can also be done at the Crater (Midway, UT) by special arrangement with The Dive Shop.
Liability and Medical Release Forms
All students are required to complete and sign our Liability Release and Medical forms prior to your first class. Parents or guardians will also be required to sign for students under the age of 18.
IMPORTANT: If the Medical Form has any “Yes” answers, then the third form (Physician’s Statement) should be printed and signed by your physician prior to any pool activities. Bring the signed Physician’s Statement to class.
If your physician does not have experience with scuba-related medicine, SDI has prepared a “Guidelines for Recreational Scuba Diver’s Physical Examination” to assist him/her in making a medical determination of suitability which you can share with your health care provider (Dr’s Guidelines below).
